If I had had the good fortune to be the keeper of the Jardin des Plantes for a day, I would have wanted to take my visitor wherever I wanted, wherever everything moves along like in a song or a poem.

To watch, listen, and discover the magic of the world. Nothing would be serious, but everything would be important.
